Re: Elizabeth S. Phenix-Crittenden County, Ky.

Debbie, I have an Elizabeth S. Phenix born 1836, possibly in Crittendon Co. KY (this is where a sister Nancy P. was married in 1843 to a Lorenzo Dow Parmenter).

If you believe this is the same person as you have, she has a half brother named Preston Kemper Phenix born 1815 in Davidson Co. TN.His parents were Henry Phenix born 1778 and Nancy Todd born 1780.They married in Davidson Co. TN in 1798.Family story is that Nancy died about 1821 and Henry remarried - a lady who had 10 children - and they had 2 or 2 together.We do not know the name of the second wife. Margaret Haw
